That's because it is a policy key. You shouldn't be changing that
directly through the registry in the first place. The setting was most
likely put there by a GPO. What is it that you're trying to do?

I would of thought so too, and thought this task would be a no brainer,
check HCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Communicator on a XP SP2 build, it
is definitely set to read only for the user.

That doesn't sound right. If it is in HKCU the user should (by default)
be able to modify it.

All, 

Is there a way to configure permissions on registry key in the HKCU
hive?  I want to run a startup script that modifies a key in this hive
from the user portion of the GPO, but the user only has read only access
to it by default. Any ideas?

TIA, 

Brad
